We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.

Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
1. How is AZB's competition law practise after Samir's departure?
2. Is there a difference in the Bombay and Delhi teams or are the talks of a national team actually true?
3. What is the pay like, between A2-A4 levels?
4. Split of enforcement and merger control? I believe there is no specialization of the nature SAM has in terms of teams that do only one and not the other?
5. Log kaise hai? Hours kaise hai?
Dhanyawaad.
And the talks of a national team is a hundred per cent true. If I sit 15 days in Mumbai and 15 days in Delhi, it would not make any difference whatsoever.
Hours are extremely taxing and lengthy, no respite there.
There is no split between enforcement and merger control.
+ A comment below says hours are "superb". They're lucky or are you unlucky? My sympathies if latter
The people who are a bit incompetent are left alone and are not tasked on a number of transactions at once, which is why some have a great work life balance and excellent work hours. These are mostly people who have joined from 2022 May till date (Have been 10 hires and half of them aren't good).
